UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

FRANK KELLOGG, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.

WAGON-JACK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 274,498, dated March 27, 1883,

Application filed February 2, 1883.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, FRANK KELLOGG, of the city of Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented a certain new and Improved Wagon-Jack, of which the fol lowing is a specification.

This invention is illustrated by the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 repre-,

sents a side view of said jack, showing parts slightly raised. Fig. 2 represents a front view of the same, with corresponding letters and dimensions and parts raised as in Fig. 1; Figs. 3, at, 5, and 6 are enlarged parts, as shown by their respective letters in Figs. 1 and 2.

Letter A is the base or stand.

Letter B is an upright support, inortised in to the base A, and to which the upright sliding bar (letter O) is affixed by iron clamps a n, and also the iron band d.

Letter D represents two iron castings, bolted to the sides of the handle E, and is also secured to the upright support B by an iron bolt, 6.

Letter fis an iron forging affixed to the iron casting D, as represented by letter g, and is intended to raise the sliding bar 0 by a. castiron ratchet, F.

Letter 0 is an elongated part of the ratchet F, and is intended to raise the forward axle of a wagon, and can be adjusted by the handleE and iron forging f.

Letter b is an iron clcvis,'bolted to the upright support B, the loop of which is placed under the upper part of. the ratchet at c, and is intended to hold the sliding upright bar 0 in position by dropping over the teeth of the ratchet F, and which can be detached in order to lower the sliding bar 0 by hearing on the 31116.32; after taking off the strain with the ban- (No model.)

with the sliding bar 0, is placed under the axle. Then, by the handle E being depressed, it will raise up the clevis or loop f, catching under the teeth of the ratchet F, and it is raised to any desired height. When required to be lowered, the handle E is pressed down, and by the handle t the clevis b can be moved from under the teeth of the ratchet F. The sliding bar C can then be lowered toits lowest point, doing the work it is intended for in a very easy and satisfactory manner.

1 do not claim the base A, standard B, sliding bar 0, casting D, orv the handle E, as they have been known and used before; but

WhatI do claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- 1. The projection c on the upper end of the ratchet F, in combination with the sliding bar 0, substantially as described and set forth.

2. The clevis f, in combination with the handle E, casting D, and ratchet F, substantially as described and set forth.

3. The clevis b, in combination with the standard 13 and ratchet F, substantially as described and set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand.

FRANK KELLOGG.
